Jolemai Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 So I was somewhat surprised to find that the Mechanicum Krios Venator is no longer available. Did the model not sell well due to assembly, bad rules, or what? ... and yes, it's another one of these style threads, but at least we know it's not going softback.

Runefyre Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Heh heh, it wouldn't be due to bad rules, that's for sure. Most Mechanicum stuff is quite underpriced. It could be a scenario similar to the suppressor (or whatever you call the FW exclusive Sisters tank), were they accidentally broke the mold.

Charlo Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 It's probably just that. It's a very powerful tank - mould is probably just worn out! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/326733-krios-venator-oop/#findComment-4527676 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Confused Word Bearer Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 For a second there I thought you meant the Sicaran Venator! Wonderful model I have no room for in my list, unfortunately.

Ishagu Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Wait... It's gone forever!? Surely stimulating sales by making it available for 40k AdMech would have worked??

Charlo Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Again, it's no doubt the mould is broken! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/326733-krios-venator-oop/#findComment-4527884 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corswain Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Again, it's no doubt the mould is broken! That or it already needs a new mould due to overwhelming demand. Seems less likely though.

Reyner Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Maybe they are going to sell the regular Krios with the Venator pieces instead? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/326733-krios-venator-oop/#findComment-4528458 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soldier of Dorn Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 I'm sure we'll find out soon enough: there are several posts to their Facebook page asking what's happened to the Krios Venator. Now is simply a waiting game to see how (or if) they respond.

Jolemai Posted October 12, 2016 Author Share Posted October 12, 2016 Maybe they are going to sell the regular Krios with the Venator pieces instead? To be fair, there's a lot of things they could do that with. Would probably save space in the long run too.

Reyner Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 They do it with the Solar Auxilia Medusa and Basilisk I think so it would be nice :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/326733-krios-venator-oop/#findComment-4528572 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolemai Posted October 12, 2016 Author Share Posted October 12, 2016 They do it with the Solar Auxilia Medusa and Basilisk I think so it would be nice Aye. Could have sworn they were separate at first too and yet, the Marine versions are still available separately. Things like Malcadors would certainly benefit but I guess i'm preaching to the choir here.

Jackalwolf Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Normally when the mould needs retooling, which is something very normal that happens every one or two years depending on the popularity of the SKU, they place a out of stock notice, with an option to be sent an email when the mold is repaired. Just check the EC terminators and you'll see the difference.

Corswain Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Maybe they are going to sell the regular Krios with the Venator pieces instead? I'm leaning towards this. It makes a lot of sense, especially if they want to expand the range using that chasis as a base like they do with the rhino.

Terminus Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 That would make it quite a bit more expensive. The central gun is most of the tank! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/326733-krios-venator-oop/#findComment-4529553 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phatsquirre1 Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 I tried to order one last week, called up when I saw the OOP notice (went up the day after I ordered) and they mentioned that it would be back in stock sometime in the next week or so.
